As far as I know, we don't yet support setting the time-server from DHCP, although it would be nice to have. There are at least two openfate requests concerned with that. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I've got an own ntp-server in the LAN and the machines I install don't have any access to the internet. I'm installing the machines via PXE in a separated network. The IPv4-configuration is provided with dhcp. The ntp-servers-option is ignored. Even more: if you disable the ntp-update during installation (after I waited very long time for the time out), the installed system wants to connect to the ntp-servers anyway. This takes about 17 minutes of time. It should be fixed very fast! It's a no go from my point of view - it's just pretty unusable! Is there a way to set the ntp-servers at the boot prompt like the install option? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

There was never planned to use "option ntp-servers" during the installation. So it is a new feature. 2. In the installed system the "option ntp-servers" will be used, if you have configured ntp running as daemon and NETCONFIG_NTP_POLICY is configured resp. in /etc/sysconfig/network/config. 3. If the ntp server is not accessible this can cause timeouts. This is normal. How long this timeouts may be. We can discus about it. Unfortunately the default time out in sntp is very long and sntp have great powers of endurance, and tries the connections more time. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
